    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Song & Music in the Movement
    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

  • Section V. Habits and Addictions
    Section Break Page 1 Section V. Habits and Addictions Ending Habits and Addictions Page 2 Chapter 32. Ending Habits and Addictions— Binging, Drinking, Gambling, Pot, Porn, Procrastination, Drugs, Cell Phones, Shopping, Video Games and more Have you been struggling to overcome a bad habit or addiction? Most of us have. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), nearly 40% of the American population is obese. In addition to binging and overeating, common habits and addictions include • drinking • smoking / vaping • drugs, including marijuana • gambling • procrastination • cell phones • social media • internet surfing, shopping • video and computer games • nail biting • sex addictions / internet porn, • having affairs. Research studies on treatment or self-help programs for habits and addictions are not terribly encouraging. For example, although we all know someone who has lost weight, we know way more people who are overweight. As many as 50% of individuals who enter weight loss programs, or more, drop out, and many of those who initially lose some weight eventually gain it back, and 70% of people who enter primary residential programs for substance use disorder relapse almost immediately upon discharge. The results of research studies on just about any habit or addiction are no better. You can probably attest to this yourself if your own efforts to change have not been overly successful. I think I know why treatments for habits and addictions fail, and I think I know why you’re also feeling stuck—if that’s the case. I’ll show you, using the problem of binging / overeating. However, the same considerations will apply to any habit or addiction.
